FLOYD DAY, who has just
returned from a trip to Cincin-
natl, says that the coal road
was last Monday sold to G. p.
HUNTINGTON for $4,000. Mr..
DAY talked with several gen.
tleman of Mt. Sterling, when
en- route home, and says that
all of them concur in the opin-
ion that Mr.. HUNTINGTON will
ut once change the track to a
standard gauge and extend
the road to Hazel Green. In
this opinion the wish is doubt
less father to the thought, but
nevertheless there are many
reasons to believe the extern
sion will he made if Mt. Ster-
ling will do her part in donat-
.ing depot grounds. Otherwise
he may tear up the road, and
tap the G. d O. at Salt Lick,
for a connection, rs there can
be but little doubt of his COM
ing in this direction for u feed
CT to the Newport News and
Mississippi Valley system. 1t
therefore behooves the people
of Mt. Sterling to make liberal
offers. The HERALD has al
ways said that Mr.. HUNTING
TON is too far-sceing to allow
any other road to get into the
richest of our resources ahead
of him, and we believe the Sc
quel will show our estimate of
him to have been correct. He
could now, with the coar road
in possession, drop back II few
miles from its present tcrmi-
nus and thence build on to this
place cheaper than by any 9TH
er survey, but if he does so
Mt. Sterling will have made
him liberal propositions, for
the reason that he can make
an equally good connection at
Salt Lick, and save several
miles in distance. However,
we expect soon to hear some
thing definite in regard to the
matter, and we hope that Mt.
Sterling may not be shut out.
In the meantime let us pray
that Hazel Green may be en-
braced in the extension, and
that right soon.
